RE: You are all a bunch of cowards!

Quite some time ago only four fully rewarded posts per day were possible. Why not implementing that again (or even reduce the number to two posts)? One could consider it for comments as well ... Witnesses really should think about it.

I know from your other comments that you care about the platform. Maybe you are interested in some other suggestions I have made some time ago to improve it:

Sort:  

I would like to see this platform succeed. A long-standing concern for me has been that the unaddressed problems seemingly rampant throughout Steemit are steering attention away from the potential of the blockchain itself. And it's not like these solutions require extensive rework - as you noted, there used to be a cap on the number of rewarded posts per day, and that cap could easily be reintroduced.

With newer initiatives being built on top of the steem blockchain, such as Utopian, Dtube, and Dsound, I have only recently grown to appreciate its inherent potential again. The SP delegation feature could potentially attract serious interest and capital flow from the broader crypto community as I liken it to the potential of passive cash flow via proof of stake in other cryptos.

And speaking of other cryptocurrencies, I wrestle with steem's valuation relative to them. Ned Scott, the CEO of Steemit Inc, has openly declared on Twitterthat he feels steem should be a Top 10 crypto. Yet when I read through threads like this, I scratch my head at what exactly Ned might be thinking, considering all of the problems here.

Maybe his thought process is that Steemit isn't the stand alone proof of concept for the blockchain anymore, so its problems can be kicked down the road. Yet these issues need systemic solutions to help improve the perception of the blockchain and its valuation. It's obvious that until this occurs from the top down, we're all just brainstorming while whales will proceed to flag each other and pursue arbitrarily defined self-policing initiatives rather than calling for constructive changes that are applied to users across the board.

STEEM should be a top 10 coin just on the basis of usage level and community size
